A Taste of Summer: Mangoes, Mandys & More

There’s more than one reason to smile this week — it’s not just the turning back of the clock, it’s the turning point for summer. The days are getting longer, the air feels lighter, and it’s all systems go for the Man-go! Yep, the Northern Territory mango season is officially underway, and the first trays are looking beautiful.


🍊 Late-Season Citrus Still Shining

While we’re seeing the first cracks of summer fruit, don’t miss the final bloom of southern citrus. Two stunners this week are Daisy Mandys and Corella Pears — both hitting their peak.

🍊 What’s a Daisy Mandy?

A Daisy Mandy is a seedless, sweet, late-season mandarin — like a breath of fresh citrus air at the end of the season. Perfect for lunchboxes or that mid-arvo snack.

🍐 Corella Pears from Shaholli

Our mate Shaholli has knocked it out of the park this week — these Corella pears are at their peak. Crisp, aromatic, and just the right balance of sweet and floral. They’re also the best-value pear of the week.
🍐 Try them in our latest recipe here.


🥭 In Season & Smiling

Mangoes, melons, Corellas, pineapples, yellow melons, and those Mandy-Dandys are stealing the show this week.

In strife? Berries and zucchinis are feeling the pinch — limited supply, higher prices, and a little grumpy from the weather.

🥭 Hot pick: Large new-season Kensington Pride mangoes — $8 each. Grab a man-go or two while they last!
